Famous quotes containing the words personal, life, important and/or events:

    Life is unnecessarily long. Moments of insight, of fine personal relation, a smile, a glance,—what ample borrowers of eternity they are!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    To you, God the Singer, our voices we raise,
    to you Song Incarnate, we give all our praise,
    to you, Holy Spirit, our life and our breath,
    be glory for ever, through life and through death.
    Peter Davison (20th century)

    It was not important that they survive.
    What mattered was that they should bear
    Some lineament or character,
    Some affluence, if only half-perceived,
    In the poverty of their words,
    Of the planet of which they were part.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Custom, then, is the great guide of human life. It is that principle alone, which renders our experience useful to us, and makes us expect, for the future, a similar train of events with those which have appeared in the past.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
